No, you're on a Harrogate uBR, which hangs off Leeds headend and uses Leeds DHCP.

At a quick guesstimate and according to DNS there are only 3 uBRs in Harrogate - unlikely to be a high priority due to being so relatively small.

The 50Mbit may be overlaid and run from Leeds, but Harrogate itself will not be a high priority to receive equipment of its' own.

Most people's hostnames have not been changed - more relevant is that you are on bsfd1 - Basford 1, first uBR in Basford so not going to be the newest one!
